Cooling

'Nothing will change for you'
you said

Then I felt cold
Where a shadow
passed over my vision
of hope
and light dims
upon a window
of our last chapters
together

What will change for me
being ever together,
for us?

An opening
of possibilities
A freshness as a breeze
cools the air
and filters the sun

Yet you seem to say
my days are already done

 

Opting

Managing the edges
of waterfalls
to the sea

Traceable thoughts
pattern the random
into clarity

Views through clearing mist
when sounds
begin
to beckon

Remember these,
when tedium threatens

Edges of past colors
meet the day

To inform,
not overtake

Opting
wide awake

 

Reversal

Growth
yet in reverse
again

We leave behind
the seeds where dreams
shape ground
